Healthy, my ass

Many blacks love big women, but having a rump the size of Buffie the Body's can put women at risk for disease.

    Re: Iotix

    Dear Anonymous -

    Yes my tax bracket is at the high end and I don't object to it. It is only fair to pay in the pool. However I want that pool of money to be used wisely. My ass is not that skinny and my metabolism has slowed down a lot. However I see my body as a valuable investment and make attempt to eat healthy and excercise a lot. I don't see this being taught in black community just like there seems to be lack of emphasis on education. As for blaming the immigrants for all ills in society - go work the fields in their place and you will have the skinny ass pronto.
